Ulf Lamping 4cd4f9a669 Add support for slightly modified libpcap file format with nanosecond resolution (currently supported by Ethereal only). Support for both read and write was added.
The file format stays the same as the common libpcap format, only the lower part of the timestamp field uses nanoseconds instead of microseconds.

This file format uses the libpcap magic number 0xa1b23c4d.

/* Magic numbers in "libpcap" files.
"libpcap" file records are written in the byte order of the host that
writes them, and the reader is expected to fix this up.
PCAP_MAGIC is the magic number, in host byte order; PCAP_SWAPPED_MAGIC
is a byte-swapped version of that.
PCAP_MODIFIED_MAGIC is for Alexey Kuznetsov's modified "libpcap"
format, as generated on Linux systems that have a "libpcap" with
his patches, at
http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/os/Linux/ip-routing/lbl-tools/
applied; PCAP_SWAPPED_MODIFIED_MAGIC is the byte-swapped version.
PCAP_NSEC_MAGIC is for Ulf Lamping's modified "libpcap" format,
which uses the same common file format as PCAP_MAGIC, but the
timestamps are saved in nanosecond resolution instead of microseconds.
PCAP_SWAPPED_NSEC_MAGIC is a byte-swapped version of that. */
